@emptinessboy Can you run SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'character\_set\_%'; request in database and put output here?

[emptinessboy]

I have run it in phpMyadmin, the result is like below.

Variable_name	Value
character_set_client	utf8mb4
character_set_connection	utf8mb4
character_set_database	utf8mb4
character_set_filesystem	binary
character_set_results	utf8mb4
character_set_server	utf8mb4
character_set_system	utf8

Last thing to know, can you execute in console: python -c 'import sys; print(sys.getdefaultencoding())' code to see maybe python for some reason working in non utf-8 mode(but I doubt this, it look like a bug, will look at it near time).

[emptinessboy]

# python3 -c 'import sys; print(sys.getdefaultencoding())'
utf-8

[emptinessboy]

It seems that python is running in utf-8 mode(I use python3 in /user/bin/python3), or maybe the .py program doesn't regster in utf8 mode curroctly?

[bigcat88]

utf-8 is the default python3 mode. problem is that i created a folder with china, ukrainian and english symbols and it was processed correctly, so i can't find how to get this bug to debug... i am thinking of this, maybe will find some idea how to find this bug...

[emptinessboy]

It seems that the folder contain Chinese works ok, but file name contain Chinese get wrong.

Soon will be a newer version posted, maybe there will be no this bug(but maybe will be still) If new version will still not work, is there any chances to test-run it on a newer version of python? Like 3.7-3.8 ?

Maybe not so soon as I expected, my part is done, but PHP part that are maintained by Andrey are still in progress. Just waiting...

[bigcat88]
